How can I make my map feel more lived in?

*I want to make my map feel more lived in.

  • I’m not much of a builder, my friend is the one who builds the map; however I feel as if the map feels way to clean and empty, even if there are dilapidated buildings. I don’t know how to describe the feeling.

P.S there arent supposed to be trees in this area

Heres a video showcasing the map so far.

If you were going for a vintage Roblox feeling game you’ve nailed it. It also has some newer details you wouldn’t see in older builds.

I’ve said before on other posts that I don’t like to see everything at 90° to everything else, it’s not very realistic if you compare it to the real world. You do have some signs and other details that aren’t square to the everything else and that looks good to me.

The 90 degree angle thing is something i never noticed until now, thanks for pointing that out. I’ll find some ways to make things feel a bit diverse in that sense. But ya, the overall vibe is supposed to be a mix of vintage and modern roblox. Thanks for you feedback, means alot !

Well, its kind of just a baseplate with stuff on it, add some trees, rocks, rough ground stuff like that.
What I see that its lacking is effects, and some fog, fire, maybe fire flies just effects that you think suit the design.
